Resumo: | This study analyzed the importance of exercise frequency on eating disordered behaviors and psychological well-being and the ability of various exercise individual, and psychological variables to predict eating disordered behaviors. The following characteristics were measured: eating disordered behaviors, dieting habits, physical activity, goal orientation, social physique anxiety, and self-esteem. The results showed that regular exercise was reported most frequently by males, those with high attraction toward exercise, and adolescents with fewer dieting behaviors. Moreover, adolescents who exercised regularly showed fewer eating disordered behaviors and had more positive psychological functioning. The results also confirmed the importance of various exercise, individual, and psychological variables in predicting eating disordered behaviors. In sum, this study validates the importance of regular exercise for promoting psychological well-being and preventing eating disordered behaviors in adolescence. |

Se analizó la importancia de la frecuencia de la práctica en conductas alimentarias y en el bienestar psicológico. Además, se intenta explicar las conductas alimentarias tomando en consideración las características deportivas, individuales y psicológicas. Las variables evaluadas fueron: los trastornos de la conducta alimentaria, la tendencia a realizar dietas, las rutinas en la práctica de ejercicio, la orientación de objetivos, la ansiedad física social y la autoestima. Los resultados mostraron que mantenían una práctica regular de ejercicio principalmente los adolescentes varones, quienes tenían una atracción positiva por el ejercicio y menor tendencia a conductas dietéticas. También se ha encontrado que el grupo con práctica regular de ejercicio presentaba menos trastornos de la conducta alimentaria, así como un mejor funcionamiento psicológico. La predicción de perturbaciones alimentarias confirma la importancia de las variables deportivas, individuales y psicológicas. En resumen, los resultados confirmaron la importancia de la práctica de ejercicio no solo en términos de bienestar psicológico, sino también en la prevención de conductas alimentarias problemáticas en adolescentes.Elsevier EspañaUniversidade do MinhoGomes, RuiGonçalves, SóniaCosta, Joana2015-022015-02-01T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/1822/34068engGomes, R., Gonçalves, S., & Costa, J.
